WELL said IS this from the Waco Day:
"There are good citizens and intelligent
men on both sides of this pending ques-
ton. d 2n't set any man down as "rum-
ME" and "saloon defender" because be
opposes prohibition. On the other hand
don't put any man down as 8 "crank" and
disorganizer because he will vote for
prohibition. Be calm; you are ell neigh
bors and can't get along without each 9TH
er, no matter what the result or August
1 ." This is free country and each man
is entitled to think Gnd vote according to
the dictates of his own judgment. After
the 4th day of next month Texas will be
here, Fort Worth will be here and the po-
litical party OF each mans preference will
be here. Intolerance and BULLDOG
ing are democratic, un.Republi-
can and un-American. No man who prizes
his own freedom of thought and speech,
and desires to preserve it will deny the
same freedom to others, and the man who
does SO is unworthy of freedom and is at
heart tyrant and the tool of tyranny.

The Legislature at its last session
wisely amended the election law so IS to
apply the penalty for Illegal voting to
elections held for the purpose of decid-
ing upon any public measure Or PROPOSE
ton as we'll as TO those held for choosing
officers. The penalty for Illegal voting
is confinement ID the penitentary not
more than five nor less than two years.
Severe penalties gre also provided in the
Penal Code for the punishment of per
sons who procure or advise others TO vote
when not qualified Or to vote more than
once, or who bride, or offer to
brlbe, or furnish money for bribing
voters to secure either the success Or de-
feat of 8 particular candidate or treasure.
In the elect n to be held next week the
election officers cannot exercise too much
care in preventing Illegal voting, and
guarding the Da lOt-box against every
species of fraud. Good citizens, without
regard to their views upon tie questions
to be determined, should be equally
earnest and diligent in striving 20 make
the election q free and fair expression Of
the popular voice. The measures to be
voted upon propose important changes
In the organic law of the state.
They are submitted for ratification
or rejection by the highest su-
thority within the state-the will OF the
people as announced ct the ballo:-bOx.
No crime can be more dangerous to So
ciety than that which attempts by any
method to prevent true expression of
that will. II Is of far less importance
whether prohibition is or IS not aaopted,
or whether the judiciary article is or is
not amended, than thSt the decision
whatever it may be shall be reached by
| honest methods. A great moral obligs-
ton rests upon every person to guard the
purity of the llot-box. The good citi-
zen cannot afford to disregard this obi
Cation. His interest in good government
| Is vital, and this cannot be perpetuated
! where corruption is permitted in
elections. Whstever might be the result
of fraud in the ensuing election as affect
ing the measures to be voted on, it would
establish g precedent the evil effects of
which would be felt for Macy yesrs 70
come The people of Texas should Tot
allow the precedent to be established. 1t
should be understood that persons who
attempt by fraud to defeat the will OF the
people Will be promptly and unsparingly
punished. With this purpose in view let
election officers and citizens watch care
fully for attempts at fraudulent voting
and interference with ballot boxes after
ballots are cast.

THE COMING CONTEST.

Whatever may be thought of Hon. Hen
ry Wstterson's fantastic utterances or
registering language on occasion, every
body who has watched the course of the
cratic Kentuckian will accord to him q
prescience on political questions of Ms
tional Importance possessed by but few
citizens of Amerlca. His recent inter
view published in the New York Herald
does not detract from his reputation as
q prophet in the least He claims what
ell thinking men believe, that the next
presidential contest will be less vindic-
tive than the last. The bloody shirt will
be used in certain localities perhaps, but
it is no longer battle cry. John Sher-
man made the mistake of his life in de-
pending upon it. The crazy rawlings OF
futile AND Fairchild have disguised the
country, and the summary manner in
which these gentlemen were hoisted by
their own petards is conclusive evidence
that the American people have had
enough of this style Of campaign stage
thunder, and will no longer be moved by
passion or guided by prejudice. The citi
zenship OF America no longer Car
be made to worship the fine frenzy
of those megniloquent orators whose

ADVERTISING RATES.

The advertising rates of newspapers
are made upon the basis of circulation,
and as esch newspaper fixes its own rate
according to its own circulation, the i'd
vertising rates of different newspapers
are honest indications of the respective
circulations of such newspapers. With
these facts in one'5 mind, the bids on
the printing of the tax list OF the unor-
ganized counties will give the public a
very intelligent ides of the value set by
each bidder on it's advertising space as
derived by each bidder from It's
own knowledge of it's own circula-
ton. On the 26:h inst. Comp
troller Mccall awarded the contract to
advertise the tax list of the unorgsnized
counties for unpaid taxes of the year

THE UNION STOCK YARDS.

In THE GAZETTE Of yesterday, modestly
sandwiched between other Items of less
import, was the following:
A charter has been filed to day of the Fort
Worth Union Stock Yards Company, capital
stock S20O 000 incorporators, j. p. nith, j. W.
Burgess, X. +. Maddox, Morgan Jones, L. u.
Voak, +. Il. Harold, K, c. kecens, John G..
Brown.
This little item was pregnant with
meaning of good for Fort Worth. 1t
meant that here was to be established
stock yards on a par with
those which have attracted the
live stock trade to Chicago, Kansas City,
Buffalo and Pittsburg, through which
trade those cities have been built up aud
made great and prosperous. The names
OF the incorporators are significant Of the
hearty cooperation of tue great trunk
lines in this movement to make Of Fort
Worth the live stock market of the south
west. John G.. Brown Of the Texas and
Pacific, Morgan Jones of the Fort Worth
and Denver, L. D. Voak Of the Missouri
Pacific, and r. G. Kerens of the st. Louis,
Arkansas and Texas, sre among the in
corporstors.
With the establishment here Of stock
yard facilities, such as are guaranteed by
the formation of this company, Fort
Worth will become the live stock mart
of the southwest for all time, and this
means an extent of commercial expansion
not dreamed Of now by our most san
guine citizens.

stock in trade consists of appeals to pas
sion and whose craftsmanship is entirely
retrospective and reminiscent. What is
past is forever settled and removed be-
yond the pale of practical politics. Whist
is demanded by the people is something
applicable to the present and of interest
to the future welfare of the country. The
next presidential campaign will be con-
Quoted with less bitterness and sectional
hate than any campaign since the war.
There are other interests and issues to
be considered and disposed of-real, live
issues that exist and affect the present.
The tariff question, the labor question,
the foreign immigration question, the
liquor question, the question of coast de-
lenses, and of q navy and other questions
of actual interest in the domestic economy
of the n.tion must be taken up and dealt
with, and the rebel flag, the bloody shirt
and kindred sentimental matters will be
relegated to the rear and lost in obsCurity,
together with all those who foolishly
cling to them. There will be less excite
ment, probably, and SO much the better !;
there With be more common sense and
practical, rational discussion. There will
be more demand for craftsmanship and less
for the specious generalities of the
emotional politician. And this too, with
out any disparagement of the past or
surrender Of views and opinions on by
cones. War questions are not now be-
fore the country; they are "out of order"
and will not be entertained. The country
expects and will demand something
which affects The present, and those
venomous fossils who can speak or think
of nothing but "reminiscences a quarter Of
century behind the time will fad but
little encouragement and few followers.

people of Texas is not TO be made whip
